Andrew Griffiths

Andrew's session:[Keynote] It's time to bulletproof your business

Andrew Griffiths is a serial entrepreneur with a passion for helping people achieve their business dreams and goals.

He is an internationally renowned business author, dynamic keynote presenter and specialist consultant. But it wasn't always that way.

As an orphan growing up in Western Australia, Andrew survived neglect, abuse and tragedy. In spite of a childhood filled with so many challenges, he grew into a man described as contagiously positive, funny and endlessly enthusiastic. Andrew has taken what life has thrown at him and grown from it rather than letting it overwhelm him.

The one consistent component of Andrew's life has been his dedication to the world of entrepreneurialism. He started his first business at the age of seven when he sold newspapers in the red light district of Perth. Since then he has gone on to sell encyclopaedias door-to-door, travelled the world as an international sales manager for a large Japanese shipping company, worked in the Great Sandy Desert for a gold exploration company, been a publisher, had his own SCUBA school and retail store, and worked as a commercial diver throughout Australia and Papua New Guinea.

Inspired by a desire to see others reach their full potential, Andrew has written eight hugely successful books. His 101 Business Building Books series offers smart, practical and realistic advice. Sold in 50 countries, the series has been translated into many languages including Chinese, Indian, Vietnamese, Nigerian, Estonian and Indonesian. The 101 series is published in Australia by Allen & Unwin.

Known for his ability to entertain, inspire and to energise, Andrew is considered one of the leading small business experts in the world. His clients are a who's who of the corporate world including franchise groups, Government departments and corporations with a small business customer base.

Andrew delivers simple ideas combined with his remarkable life experiences and the results are profound - so much so he's been contracted by one of the world's most prestigious publishers, Simon & Schuster, to write his autobiography as an inspirational literary work.
